As annoying as that sort of ignorance is, I would say it's marginally better than the opposite attitude that security scanners are bullshit and therefore unnecessary. The fact is, scanners turn up real issues that slip through whatever manual patching process you have set up.

My feeling is similar to when I started unit testing aggressively a decade ago: it seems like this should be unnecessary, but every time I do it it never fails to pay dividends.
